The blue iron plankton seemed like it was dying. Philip pretended to lie on the edge of the table and urged it along. Seeing the others quickly overtaking it, Philip cursed the iron plankton. “I chose you not to see you stop here. Hurry up and move it, you piece of trash!” Philip was hysterical. Next to him, Carl grabbed hold of this Sir Gordon Tine tightly. His eyes gradually dimmed. It seemed that this expert was useless now. Soon, iron plankton number seven was the first to reach the finish line through numerous obstacles. That person played his part well, pretending to be very shocked and excited. They lost one million just like that. Carl looked helplessly at Philip, who was lying on the table and kicking a fuss to win it back. “Sir, let’s stop playing. We can pay back what we owe by working.” At this time, Philip looked as if he was buzzed from gambling. Philip pushed Carl and said viciously, “This is my game. As an outsider, you have no say over it.” The manager
The others did not pay much attention to this. After all, iron plankton would go fast or slow at any time. Although all the iron plankton was rigged, it was mostly targeted at the customer’s iron plankton. Philip did the same on the second one, but it was not easy to do the same on the third one for fear of arousing suspicion. Thus, Philip added a little boost on the back of his iron plankton number two and saw a significant increase in its speed. “Go, go, go!” Philip cheered frantically. Carl also looked excited at the sight of possible victory. That iron plankton finally overtook iron plankton number three at the last minute and reached the finish line. With a smile on his face, Philip quickly swept all the chips in front of him into his arms while Carl still looked a little dumbfounded. They won all of a sudden, and so much too. The manager scowled, but he could not say anything. He threw in more than 12 million in one go. His boss would peel his hide if he found out a
“You’re almost in my face. Why are you yelling so loudly? Is there something wrong with your eyes?” Philip sneered before continuing, “I’m the one messing around. What’s the problem?” “I advise you not to be so cocky. You’ll get beaten up like this.” The middle-aged man saw that this man was so arrogant and spoke coldly. The manager hurried up to this man, told him what happened, and was scolded by the boss, “Trash! How dare you believe in magic tricks? You let a beggar into my casino. I think you must be tired of living!” “Boss, please spare my life. I won’t dare to do this anymore!” The manager fell to his knees and begged for mercy. The man kicked the manager away and said, “Hurry up and get out of my sight. Don’t let me see you again.” The two continued to glare at each other, and Philip said, “Where's the money I won?” “What money? You didn’t win any money.” The boss tried to play dirty and said arrogantly, “Don't think that you can win money from me by playing
Philip had long noticed the boss’ movements but did not call him out. Suddenly, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes. With a fierce killing intent, the middle-aged man wanted to stab Philip's eye socket with a dagger. When he thought he was about to succeed, a huge gust of air gushed out from Philip's body, and the man could hardly open his eyes from the huge pressure. When he opened his eyes again, his dagger was firmly clamped by the man in front of him with two fingers. Philip’s hair was all messed up by the strong wind. His eyes pierced into the boss' mind like sharp swords, and his dagger could not break free from that vice-like grip no matter what. “You have no chance. Tell me how you want to deal with this.” As Philip spoke, he took a step forward, grabbed the man by the collar, and lifted him. “M-My father is the leader of Mountain Wolf Squad! You can't do anything to me!” Although the middle-aged man lost his composure, he still tried his best to keep his
The group of people insisted on buying Philip dinner to repay Philip for saving them. Philip tried his best to refuse but to no avail. Carl got anxious in the end before Philip finally agreed. However, Philip detected someone with his senses from the Golden Lotus Casino who had been following them the entire way. It seemed that the boss was unwilling to give up. That so-called Mountain Wolf Squad would probably find trouble with them later. There were five men and three women in this group of nine, and all of them looked quite inexperienced. If Philip were not here, they probably would not have noticed the danger. A quirky little girl in the team kept asking Philip why he did not cut his hair and beard when he was so rich. She was the one who advanced with the help of the stone fruit. Philip finally replied, “I'm afraid you’ll faint from my good looks.” The girl was stunned for a moment before she laughed loudly and said, “Sir, you’re so funny.” Next to her, Carl grabbed
After the meal, Philip left with Carl’s contact details, and the other party returned to the hotel. “Where are you from?” Philip asked loudly. At this time, three people came out of the shadows between the buildings. Philip had seen one of them before. He was one of the captors. “The leader of Mountain Wolf Squad would like to see you. Can you come with us?” Although the man in the middle posed it as a question, he adjusted the gun on his waist, meaning that things would turn rough if Philip refused. Philip felt amused. Among the three, two were in the middle stage of seven stars while the other one was in the early stage of seven stars. It seemed that the power he displayed just now was not a strong enough deterrent. “Lead the way,” Philip said with his hands behind his back. “Okay, you’re smart enough.” The man thought Philip was a fool who had no fear of death and said with a grin. Philip and the three walked out of the building and came to an independent high-rise
The smell of meat permeated the whole room, and those who did not know would think they were having a barbecue. “Damn boy, how dare you?!” the wolfman bared his fangs in pain and glared at Philip as he howled. With the help of his subordinates, the flames were extinguished, but the neatly groomed hair on his body was now scorched and burnt, making him look unkempt. “I’m going to rip you apart!” The wolfman growled and rushed toward Philip again. His sharp claws flashed with cold light as he swiped at Philip’s neck. Seeing this, Caelum Sword flashed with a fiery red as Philip blocked his attack. With a bang, Philip staggered a few steps back, his arms numb from the impact. The wolf was unbothered. A piece of flesh was burned off his arm, but it posed no threat to him. Immediately, he launched a fierce attack on Philip, and the wolfmen gained the upper hand for a while due to their advantage in numbers. On the other hand, Philip resisted in a leisurely manner. He was th
In a mountain forest at this time, the wolfman leaned against a tree and panted heavily. He was almost killed in the fight just now. Even though he ran fast, he was still seriously injured. He could not help the lingering fear at the thought of Philip, wondering how the hell his stupid son offended such a guy. “Damn, I was careless, but where there’s a will, there’s a way. I definitely won’t let him go for messing with me!” the wolfman said coldly. He got up and was about to leave, but in the next second, a leaf pierced through the tree trunk beside him. “You have no chance now. If we were in the city, maybe it’d be inconvenient for me to do anything, but I have no restrictions in this remote place.” At this time, Philip walked over from a distance and said unhurriedly, holding the Caelum Sword in one hand and fiddling with a few leaves in the other. “H-How is this possible? How did you catch up?” At this time, the wolfman looked at Philip oddly. He ran so far, but this g
“You must be referring to the lark people. What do you want with them? They're not to be trifled with. You’ll be in trouble if you mess with them.” Everyone was delighted to hear about the lark people. It was great that someone knew something. Adam was very excited to find a clue as soon as they arrived. He had thought it would take a lot of effort to find something, but reality proved otherwise. “The lark people can be regarded as the overlords here. You can find out about them easily. I'm just an ordinary old woman, so I can't tell you too much. You should approach other people if you want to find out more. Maybe you can find a storyteller. I’m sure they can tell you some very important information.” The old lady was clearly unwilling to disclose anything, so everyone was disappointed. In that case, they could not force her. “Thank you very much. At least you gave us an inkling about what to do. We wouldn’t know so many things if it weren't for you.” Adam thanked the old
“I heard that her family is quite complicated. They seem quite troublesome.” Hearing that, everyone wondered what Adam meant. It seemed that he would face problems in pursuing a relationship with this woman. Carlos looked at Adam awkwardly and sighed. “It doesn't matter. We don’t have to worry about that. Let's just take things one step at a time.” Rabbit calmly drifted around with Philip, feeling quite good. “What's there to worry about? I say the old monk has nothing better to do than worry about trivial matters. It’d be embarrassing if so many of us couldn’t bring a woman back.” Until now, Rabbit felt that the other party was just an ordinary woman, so he did not think that there was anything to worry about. They quickly joined the line to enter the city. To Philip's surprise, there was no entrance fee at all. Moreover, their appearance and attire looked no different from the others. Philip and his friends calmly entered the place, and Philip stood on guard. He had a
Philip felt helpless at the sight of this vast starry sky and suddenly felt that maybe coming here was not the right choice. They arrived without knowing anything about this place, so they might encounter various dangers. “I’m curious about the woman you've been looking for. She must be quite extraordinary,” Philip said curiously, baffled about this matter. Hearing that, Adam shook his head helplessly. He was really clueless about everything. “I only know that I can come here and find her with the key. I don’t even know where she is. We can only search aimlessly in this starry sky.” Philip was dumbfounded by Adam’s incompetence. “I thought we’d be teleported to her home or a fixed location, so I don’t know what’s the deal with this. I have a feeling that I’ve been tricked.” Adam sighed helplessly. “Let's just wander around. I’m sure we can find something somehow,” Carlos comforted Adam, but he was not optimistic about it either. He knew that they probably could not find the
Adam had to reevaluate Philip’s strength. He used to think that Philip was simply the best of his generation. Although powerful, he was not invincible. However, the ability to change certain orders and rules was not something that just anyone had. It would not be far-fetched to call Philip the chosen one favored by the heavens. Philip told Carlos to bury Bryce before forgetting about him. Carlos quickly handled his affairs, packed his bags, and got ready to set off with Philip. Adam also waited for Philip without much luggage on hand. Philip stuffed Rabbit into the Verge Tower space. He had to bring Rabbit along with him or the latter would be up to no good. “Rabbit, stay in Verge Tower and stop bothering me.” Rabbit was upset to hear that he had to stay in Verge Tower but still felt happy that Philip was willing to take him along. “Next, the two of you need to relax. I’ll wrap you with my energy. Don't try to resist or you’ll only end up hurting yourself,” Philip said.
“I have other important things to do. Don't worry. I’ll be back soon, so make sure you work hard during this time. I’ve given you all the pills you need. Whether you can make full use of them depends on you.” In Philip’s opinion, the Hexa Guild could not do anything anymore, so there was no worry about them. After much deliberation, Jamie nodded. Philip did not belong to his guild, so he could hardly stop Philip from leaving. Moreover, Philip’s pill supply was already a great help to them. It would be annoying if Jamie asked for more. “No problem. Where are you going next? Do you need my help? I’ll do my best to help you.” The Celestial Palace was powerful enough for Jamie to say such things. Philip shook his head. He would be traveling with Adam next, and his strength was incredible. It was best for them to leave together. “It’s okay. I have everything prepared. Just do your best in the competition and don’t allow the Hexa Guild to take the upper hand.” Now that the Cele
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
